Watch the Part 1 of the Animated COMMUNITY Webisodes Right Now

Just a few days ago, we learned that the cast of Community would get animated for a series of online shorts to promote the delayed return of the NBC comedy series. Now Hulu has part one of the three-part webisode series available online. Titled Abed’s Master Key, the shorts see Dean Pelton hire Abed as his temporary assistant. Entrusted with a Greendale Master Key, Abed abuses his power to help his friends, and after Britta confronts Abed, she heads down the same dark path. This should be a great holdover until the series returns March 15th and will at least kill two minutes of your work day with some laughs. Watch the short after the jump!
